  1. I have a question off the subject , I have been having stomach pains for awhile and decided to go to the hospital , they ran all test and ct scan, and saw Fluid around the port . Has anyone had this problem and if so how did you handle it.Is this something that I need to be concern with immediately b/c my Dr.didn't schedule my appt until Monday 12/3. ~MsChoco1

  5. Don't feel guilty!! I dont know how much or if I gained any weight ,but you can rest to sure that we are not the only ones that ate more than we would normally eat. So no stressin and what I do is stay away from the scale until weight in ~MsChoco1

  16. I got my first fill on 10/3 .. and I'm noticing that I'm still hungry and not as satisfied as I should be after meals. Should I call my Dr for a early fill..if its such a thing ?? ~MsChoco1
  17. Thanks Elle.. that was another thing that I though of b/c I sleep on my side that the port is on.. uugg .. guess I have to be patient.. no pain no gain or in out case no pain no loss..lol.. 25lbs down Woohoo !! ~MsChoco1
  18. I was banned on 9/4/12 and I'm still having pain on the port site. It's not tenderness but more like pain.. I though the pain would've been gone by now. I went to the ER to make sure everything was ok and it checked out but I think I need to schedule an appt with the surgeon..just to be on the safe side.. ~MsChoco1

  23. @Jim .. I didn't know if I could eat.. but now that I know .. I will make sure I get a bite before the fill.. that was the longest 24 hrs of my life ..lol.. By chance , does anyone have a guide on what a days meal would be.. I'm looking for something new so that I won't get bored with the current meals.
